Gathering shellfish in Auckland's Cockle Bay is no longer permitted, as a year-round ban on collection comes into force tomorrow.

Fisheries New Zealand enforced the closure after research showed a significant drop in the number of large cockle in the area.

In a statement, Fisheries New Zealand's manager inshore fisheries north, Jacob Hore, said that this ban was in place to help the population recover and will be reviewed after a period of three years.

"We use the best available science and information to determine if changes are required to management settings to ensure our fisheries remain sustainable. This information, along with feedback through public consultation, shaped our advice to the Minister for Oceans and Fisheries on his decision to implement a full year-round closure at Cockle Bay/Tuwakamana," he said.

What you need to know:

- There is a ban on gathering any intertidal shellfish including cockles, green lipped mussels, oysters, crabs, limpets, starfish, periwinkles, whelks, barnacles, and snails.
- Signs have been updated and fisheries officers will be regularly patrolling the area.
- The closure will be reviewed after three years.

Fisheries NZ is encouraging beach-goers who see any suspicious activity to report it to 0800 4 POACHER (0800 47 62 24)

Hi Auckland,

What are your water-saving hacks?

Water restrictions for the city are to remain in place until August, and similar bans on water use may return next summer.

Watercare is set to ask council to remove restrictions on outdoor water use, if rain forecasts, the state of the region’s storage lakes, and a new supply boost all eventuate as hoped.

Watercare said Aucklanders had significantly cut water use, and the biggest supply boost – another 50 million litres a day from the Waikato River – should be available from August.

Presently, Auckland's dams are 51.4 per cent full compared with an average of 76.6, and Auckland's water usage is more than 10 per cent lower than Watercare had estimated.

Covid-19: Can I get the Covid vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Unsure whether you can get the Covid-19 vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?

Unsure whether you can get the Covid-19 vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?

Here's your answer neighbours:

People wanting to get both the flu jab and a Covid-19 vaccine heading into winter will be required to leave a two-week gap between the vaccines.

And those receiving a measles (MMR) booster will need to leave a four-week gap between the Pfizer vaccine and the MMR jab when MMR is given first, under advice from the Ministry of Health.

This is because having a gap between different types of vaccinations – especially considering the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine is still “relatively new” – helps authorities be sure about any side effects that may occur.

The country’s flu and Covid-19 vaccine roll-outs are both due to ramp up from May, with the influenza vaccine becoming available to under 65s, and the Covid-19 vaccine rolling out to approximately 1.7 million people in group 3.
